Named Chair Donation

Celebrate Your Legacy with a Named Chair Donation

Celebrate your passion for the game, a significant milestone, or a fellow player by naming a seat at the South Australian Bridge Association main hall, Unley.

Your contribution bolsters the joy of bridge for our player community. As a token of our appreciation, your chosen seat will boast a personalized plaque. You’ll also receive a special certificate and acknowledgement in The Declarer.

A distinctive and lasting gesture, naming a seat echoes your support for outstanding bridge experiences and the players who make them happen.

Seats can be named in recognition of:

A loved one – partner, children, grandchildren, parent, grandparent or self

A couple

A family

A bridge club member

A favourite mentor, teacher or friend

As a special gesture, named seats located at Unley can be reserved for the donor on specific days if they are committed to playing regularly.
